Application Notes: Mass Spectrometry
How can stable isotopes trace pollution sources?
December 12th 2019With isotope fingerprints sources of pollution, monitor water and air quality and track environmental change across space and time can be traced. Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry detects the “isotope fingerprint” of a sample, a unique chemical signature that changes from sample to sample across the environment.
How do isotope fingerprints support doping control investigations?
December 12th 2019Synthetic copies of endogenous steroids are chemically and pharmacologically identical to their endogenous analogs. Analyzing isotopes of the steroids provide characteristic isotope fingerprints of urinary steroids and offer a discrimination framework.
Drinking Water Analysis by ICP-MS using High Throughput Sample Introduction
December 6th 2019This work demonstrates a high throughput method for drinking water testing following EPA 200.8 leveraging PerkinElmer's NexION® HTS sample introduction module, delivering 3-5 times faster sample-to-sample analysis.
